Comments Thread For: Arum: Pacquiao-Khan Far From Being Worked Out

[Dirk Diggler UK]

EXACTLY, Pacquiao needs to understand that he is the b-side to the #1 British boxer of all time, the GREAT, the UNDEFEATED, SIMPLY THE BEST, KELL BROOKE!

Who's Alt is this?

Winner of Bradley-Rios will get the fight

^^^basically this.

Arum doesn't want to open his books to anyone, Pacquiao is going to want a big payout to close out his career, the interest in Pacquiao is going to be highly diminished (after the Mayweather performance), and Arum is going to make sure that he doesn't lose his hat on this fight.

Bradley-Rios winner or Terrence Crawford, with Amir Khan being carried around as "name fighter that Arum dangles to the press, to then swap for the fight that he intended to put on, 'when negotiations break down'".

I wonder why Kell isn't being considered as an opponent. That's a massive fight and arguably the 1# and #2 guys at welterweight.

Amazingly enough Pacquiao-Brook would be for the Ring title

The alternate for the #1 COLOMBIAN boxer in the WORLD, Alexander B-RAND

Because Kell Brook would be walking into any negotiations with Sky Sports/Sky Box Office backing him and his promoter, Matchroom Sport.

Arum almost never does business with anyone he simply can't just dictate terms to.

does anyone get the sense that arum was trying to use khan hoping haymon wouldnt allow it as an example in court? i just dont think he will end up fighting khan

[Bandman]

if its about who makes financial sense then its safe to say crawford is off the list. if bradley looks spectacular vs rios he gets the fight. khan didnt look so good going to war with feather fisted algieri. and i wanna see atlas and roach go at it.

Again another off his rocker, this is the most ridiculous 'post' I have read for a long time but it falls in line with what we now know about Khan and his 'fans' they are by far the most deluded worshippers to ever be on the scene , something incredibly I fear they will be very proud of.
I take it you are a Khan fan ?

[thack]

Arum doesn't want it and I don't blame him, there is a much better in house option.
I also don't know about Khan being the best financial option as he stunk the PPv out in the uk and has become the most disliked boxer either side of the Atlantic.He promised a 'Hatton like atmosphere' when ever he fought in Vegas , Hatton took 25,000 fans Khan took about 25 , ok it was Mayweather Hatton was fighting but Khan was top of the bill and it was half empty...embarrassing.
Crawford should be the fight no Khan , no Bradley and certainly no Rios.
Apart from Pac wanting to finish on a win unless it's competitive which I think only Crawford would be then I don't really see the point.

[Manic Shot]

Please boxing GOD make it Crawford vs Manny...Win or lose Pacman can retire with the ****!
